Chapter 519 Are You Willing to Give Bai Xiyao So Much?

When he went to work on Monday, Zhou Jing sent the newly optimized Ideal smartphone to the R&D department for testing.

According to Zhou Jing's requirements, the mobile phone will undergo a comprehensive test after each optimization, and every software and hardware, as well as every production process must be strictly controlled.

"The technical standards for the Changxiang 1 series software and systems have been formulated. Mr. Zhou, please see if there are any that need to be modified."

Li Jianwei, director of the R&D department, reported to Zhou Jing the software system that was specially modified for the Changxiang series.

"You guys are busy first."

Zhou Jing took the report back to the office and looked at it carefully. The biggest advantage of the Ideal mobile phone is its software system. Zhou Jing attaches great importance to the software system and must personally check it.

The software system of the Imagine series of smartphones is a slightly cut-down version of the Ideal software system. Firstly, this is to differentiate it from the Ideal smartphones, and secondly, the Imagine series is mainly low-end, so the processors and storage of the Imagine series are inferior and cannot be adapted to the full version of the Ideal system.

“When will the Imagination series enter the testing phase?”

Gu Jia looked at the software system report in Zhou Jing's hand and said.

"If there are no problems with the software system, we can test the whole machine this week. If you are used to Ideal, you may feel uncomfortable using the iFocus again. The difference in software fluency will be more obvious."

Zhou Jing doesn't need a test machine, he can roughly know the performance of the Imagine series just by looking at the software system report.

"you get what you pay for."

Gu Jia thought it was normal, as there was also a huge gap between low-end and mid-to-high-end phones from other brands.

The Operations Department sent last week's weekly report from Ideal Technology Co., Ltd. Gu Jia took a look at it and said in disbelief: "Last week, more than 156,000 mobile phones and 234,125 Bluetooth speakers were sold online. Domestic physical stores sold 257,820 mobile phones and 25,782 Bluetooth speakers..."

"We exported 400,000 mobile phones and 700,000 Bluetooth speakers."

"HUAWEI ordered 1 million Bluetooth speakers, OPPO ordered 300,000 Bluetooth speakers, and Xiaomi ordered 1 million Bluetooth speakers. These are all basic models, probably given away to promote mobile phones."

Gu Jia sat in front of Zhou Jing and read the Ideal Technology Weekly.

"We give them our patents for free, on the condition that they buy two million Bluetooth speakers within two years."

Zhou Jing took the weekly report and took a look. The data was very detailed, clearly showing how many mobile phones of each color were sold and how many Bluetooth speakers of each configuration were sold.

Zhou Jing looked at the number of Bluetooth speakers ordered by competitors in the weekly report and said with a smile: "From this, we can see the sales of other smartphones. The domestic Huawei is ranked first, Xiaomi is ranked second this year, and Xiaomi is growing very fast."

"We can see from the surroundings that if the trend continues, it will not be a problem for Ideal to sell 20 million mobile phones and 30 million Bluetooth speakers this year."

Gu Jia opened his mobile phone and calculated how much he could earn by selling 20 million mobile phones and 40 million Bluetooth speakers this year.

"30 million mobile phones and 50 million speakers."

Zhou Jing thinks that selling 30 million mobile phones and 50 million Bluetooth speakers this year is conservative.

"In that case, the revenue will be less than 20 billion, and the net profit will be more than 7 billion. Are you willing to give Bai Xiyao 20%?"

Gu Jia couldn't imagine that, with the addition of Chuangzhi Technology Co., Ltd. and Bowei Network Technology Co., Ltd., the net profit this year would exceed 9 billion. Partner Bai Xiyao accounted for 20%, which was nearly 2 billion. A girl made 2 billion a year following Zhou Jing. Gu Jia felt very distressed, but the girl deserved the reward for taking the risk.

"It's a bit painful, are you willing to give it up?"

No matter how reluctant Zhou Jing was, he would not lose a penny of Bai Guimi's money. Although Bai Guimi did not invest much founding capital, it was clearly written in black and white that she would take as much shares as she wanted. Besides, Bai Guimi was a girl who could accompany Zhou Jing and bear the risk of jumping off a building after failure. Initially, Zhou Jing and Bai Guimi split the money 50-50. After the success, Bai Guimi took the initiative to reduce her shares.

"It's not easy for a girl to start a business like you."

Gu Jia is not the kind of person who is blinded by money and forgets his principles.

"Now is not the time to share the money. It will cost billions to acquire a semiconductor company next year, and research and development is a bottomless pit." Zhou Jing put down the weekly report and said, "We can draw up a plan for the company's employee stock ownership reform and publish it once it's drawn up."

"By the way, has Bai Xiyao thought much about it? Will she think you are trying to cut her share?"

Gu Jia looked at Zhou Jing and said.

"No, she understands the advantages and disadvantages of the company's equity structure. This model can reject other capital participation and keep the profits in the company to the greatest extent without interference from others."

Zhou Jing shook his head and said.

“They will be excited when the employee stock ownership plan is announced.”

Gu Jia returned to his computer and began to draft the employee stock ownership plan announcement.

The specific shareholding of each employee needs to be determined over time, and only a rough plan has been announced for now.

Bai Xiyao doesn't want the shares of Chuangzhi Technology Co., Ltd.

Zhou Jing holds 5% of the shares of Chuangzhi Technology Co., Ltd., but has 100% of the decision-making power. All employees of Chuangzhi Technology Co., Ltd. hold 95% of the shares, including the Tangdu branch. As long as they have worked in the company for one year, they can obtain shares. Employees' shares are only dividends, and the company will take back the shares after resignation.

Gu Jia drafted the announcement and sent it to Zhou Jing. Zhou Jing looked at it and found no problem, so Gu Jia sent it to various company groups.

Seeing the announcement of the employee stock ownership plan, all the employees of the company were excited. It is a great blessing for workers to be able to get shares of the company without having to pay any capital. Such a company and such a boss are worth entrusting your life to.

“Have you seen the employee stock ownership announcement?”

"See, following the right person is the most important thing."

"Ideal Technology has also issued an announcement. Not counting smartphones, Ideal Technology's net profit this year is conservatively estimated to be more than 6 billion. Now that this announcement has been issued, it seems that President Zhou is determined to make the company bigger and stronger."

"With everyone's joint efforts, the smartphone can only succeed and not fail."

"When I came to the company for recruitment, I asked Mr. Zhou what kind of value I could achieve here. Mr. Zhou said that if I could create 100 million value for the company, I would give employees an annual salary of 500,000, and if I could create 100 million value for the company, I would give them shares. I thought Mr. Zhou was just talking."

"."

Wang Tao, Qin Zhengyu, Li Jianwei and others set up a separate work group. They were even more excited. As the backbone of the company, they could be said to be the veterans of the company. They would definitely get more benefits after obtaining shares. Their salaries at Chuangzhi Technology have exceeded those at their previous company. As long as the company is more successful, their income will definitely increase. They are full of enthusiasm to work for such a company.

“Will the high temperature subsidy change this year?”

Gu Jia took out last year’s high temperature subsidy information from the filing cabinet. The high temperature subsidy will be distributed starting next June. From June to September last year, the high temperature subsidy was ten yuan per day.

"constant."

Zhou Jing thought for a moment and said.

Gu Jia found last year’s high temperature subsidy table document on the computer, modified the date and sent it to the administrative department.

After ten o'clock, Gu Jia went home to feed the child. Zhou Jing did not go home for lunch. Gu Jia ate lunch at home and brought it to Zhou Jing at the company. There were three dishes and one soup, one meat, one vegetable and one cold meat. The soup was corn and pork ribs soup.

"It's a bit much, eat more."

Zhou Jing said as he looked at the food that Gu Jia had laid out.

"I'm full, please eat slowly. How about the Imagine series of software systems?" After the food was served, Gu Jia sat in front of her computer to do her work.

"No problem. Let Li Jianwei send it to Ideal R&D department and hardware adaptation."

Zhou Jing said while eating.

"Ok."

Gu Jia took the report signed by Zhou Jing to the R&D department.

After dinner, Zhou Jing took advantage of the break to ask Wang Tao, Qin Zhengyu and Li Jianwei to go to the lounge for a meeting to discuss the tablet and laptop computer R&D projects.

"Whether it's a mobile phone or a computer, our development model is to assemble and explore the technology first, and finally master the core technology, so we must focus on the design of our own ecosystem in the early stage of research and development."

Zhou Jingxian set the tone for development.

"The tablet system can be modified based on the mobile phone system, but it may take ten to eight years to complete the independent development of the computer operating system. The domestic civilian market has not yet developed an independent system. If we want to do it, we must be prepared for long-term investment."

Li Jianwei, as the director of the R&D department, spoke first.

"If you don't want to be controlled by others, you have to do it. Sooner or later, the field of science and technology will become a battlefield without gunpowder for major powers."

Zhou Jing looked at them and said.

"Indeed, what is coming will come sooner or later."

Wang Tao and others are computer software engineers. They are aware of the difficulty of developing an operating system and also know the boss's ambition, so they did not mention the difficulties. If the boss is not afraid of difficulties, what reason do they have to retreat? If they fail, the boss will lose money, and if they succeed, they will be the heroes.

After unifying the goal, the next step will be easy. The software development capability of Chuangzhi Technology Co., Ltd. is already very mature. Although it has only been established for more than a year, in terms of software development capability alone, Chuangzhi Technology Co., Ltd. is definitely first-class in the country.

The task of forming the operating system team was assigned to Wang Tao and Li Jianwei. Zhou Jing would personally lead the team and be responsible for the design of the system architecture. With Zhou Jing, a talented programmer, leading the team, Wang Tao and others felt more confident.

“It was sent by the investment company.”

Gu Jia handed the information sent by Jinlin Investment Company to Zhou Jing who had returned to the office.

Zhou Jing opened it and took a look. It was the shareholder information of two companies he invested in last week. One was a company that made integrated circuits, and the other made mobile phone screens. Both were domestic technology companies. Zhou Jing acquired 1.2% and % of the shares of the two companies for million and million respectively.

Neither company is very strong in the industry. Zhou Jing does not need a OEM factory that seems to be large but does not have high-quality independent products. Instead, he will use the needs of the companies under Zhou Jing's name to drive the technological advancement of related companies, and at the same time use the resources of the invested companies to develop what he needs, thus achieving a win-win situation.

Technology companies are very dependent on the industrial chain. If they want to grow bigger and stronger, they must build an industrial chain that can meet product needs. Generally, there are two ways to do this: one is to use self-research to drive the upgrading of related industries, and the other is to control mature upstream and downstream industries. Zhou Jing chose the former.

Including the battery companies and headphone audio and speaker companies he had previously invested in, Zhou Jing has already invested in four technology companies, and the joint research and development with the first two companies has yielded results.

The battery company has successfully developed the batteries needed for Ideal's traditional mobile phones and power banks, and has developed speakers with better sound quality together with the speaker company. Both have entered the testing phase and are expected to be completed next month. By then, Ideal Technology will no longer need to purchase batteries and speakers from other companies. The micro batteries for Bluetooth headsets have also made considerable progress.

“How much can we reduce costs by having the companies we invest in develop what we need?”

Gu Jia looked at the boy and said.

"In the short term, it is not necessarily less cost-effective than buying directly. The main thing is that you can master the technical patents and make money from the patents in the future."

What Zhou Jing cares about is not gaining benefits, but paving the way for the future.

“What would happen if patents were not followed one day?”

Gu Jia feels that patents are sometimes very overbearing, just like checking for plagiarism in a paper. Even if there is no plagiarism, if the paper is found to be the same, it will still be considered a duplicate.

"Patent rules are inherently based on a certain bandit logic. Right now, the West has an absolute advantage in the number of patents in the field of science and technology. One day, when our number of patents far exceeds theirs, they may say that patents should not be protected."

"It is entirely possible that the West developed in a bandit-like manner in modern times."

"."

Zhou Jing looked at the calendar and planned the arrangements for the end of the month in his mind. If he wanted to spend Children's Day with Yang Wenwen's daughter, he would have to go back to Yu City on May 31st, and back to Tangdu on May 30th. Today was already May 23rd.

Zhou Jing had a headache about how to tell Gu Jia.

"Mr. Zhou, this is the short video website plan. I will modify it if there is any need to modify it."

Qin Zhengyu came to the office and said.

"How is the P station internal test going?"

Zhou Jing took the plan and said.

P站 was a picture app planned by Zhou Jing before. He felt that apps like Meitu XiuXiu had too simple functions, so he changed it to one like Xiaohongshu and named it P站. Currently, it has no video function, only picture and text functions.

Qin Zhengyu said: "The internal beta test is almost done, and we are going to start the public beta test next month. Currently, there are more than 600,000 reservations in various app stores."

"it is good."

Zhou Jing nodded and opened Pornhub on his phone. The page he entered into the app was filled with posts from beta bloggers. Because the current review mechanism is very immature, Pornhub can be said to be a "pornographic book". Some bloggers post very borderline pictures in order to attract traffic. Zhou Jing saw this and was not going to rectify it for the time being. Borderline bloggers can greatly increase the appeal of the app.

Zhou Jing looked at Qin Zhengyu and continued, "Block posts that are too explicit, but don't be too hasty. You can block them after one or two days, or two or three days, and gradually strengthen the blocking standards."

"Okay Mr. Zhou, I know."

Qin Zhengyu, the operations director, immediately understood what his boss meant, which was that while we should crack down on vulgarity, we should also use bloggers who skirt the line to attract traffic. This is a very good strategy. Now the overall scale on the Internet is relatively large. Some video software openly puts h-movies on the shelves. P station is just a picture and text sharing app. It’s okay to skirt the line appropriately.

"Do all boys like to watch this?"

After Qin Zhengyu left the office, Gu Jia looked at the picture of Zhou Jing wearing suspender stockings and exposing her breasts on the screen of her mobile phone.

"Of course not all of them. My goal is to create a platform for users to share their feelings, food, news, etc. Now, in order to attract users, the review is loosened."

Zhou Jing said with a smile.

"This is a good idea. We can't let this happen too often. If it's blocked, it won't be worth it."

Gu Jia understood Zhou Jing's thoughts. She had been visiting P station frequently recently. Apart from the borderline cases, it was indeed quite interesting.

"Teacher Gu's is still the best looking."

Zhou Jing's gaze stayed on Gu Jia's legs. He reached out and tugged at the flesh-colored stockings wrapped around Gu Jia's legs.

"It's not hot, where is the company, don't tear it up for me."

Gu Jia slapped the boy's hand away.

"Then tear it up tonight?"
